[ovs-discuss] Open Vswitch to establish the GRE Tunnel

[terryxing]

To whom it may concerned,

Hi, I am new here and this is my  first time to ask question her about open
vswitch.

Here is the problem, I started using open vswitch since Xenserver 5,6
natively supported open vswitch feature.  My current configuration is that ,
I have two Dell R510 server with xenserver 5.6 sp2 installed. I enabled the
open vswitch on both hosts.  Finally, I want to use the GRE tunnel to tunnel
two xenservers at two different site together. I noticed that the open
vswitch supports GRE tunnel. Can I use the native gre tunnel feature of open
vswitch to establish the connection between two xenservers at different
subnet ? When the tunnel is established, those two xenserver should be in
the same resource pool or different ?

Is that any documents or tutorial talking about this open vswitch gre
tunnel establishment ? Thanks very much.
